“We want to continue to grow in clean and connected mobility while remaining an independent family-owned Group able to ensure its long-term development. In a context of rapid, in-depth transformation of the automotive industry, such is the mission I have entrusted to a new management team, which will propel Compagnie Plastic Omnium into an exciting future filled with opportunities.”

For his part, Plastic Omnium CEO, Laurent Favre, added: “Our development potential is strong and rests on solid human, industrial and financial fundamentals. Our roadmap is clear: transforming the Group to offer our customers solutions that meet the technological, environmental and social requirements of the car of the future.

“With no expected rebound in the worldwide automotive market over the next three years, this will firstly require the proactive management of our cost structure and the strengthening of our balance sheet. We will thus be able to seize growth and innovation opportunities that form part of our technological roadmap.”
